Hi @besimsuljic, If you’re looking to build a Grafana windows binary, then I would suggest you take a look at this [README](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/master/contribute/developer-guide.md#building-on-windows) file on the Grafana repository. Since you have WSL already set up on your machine, try run `make build-go`. This builds the Grafana binary on your windows machine. The Grafana binaries will be in `bin\windows-amd64`. Hope that helps! ---

@besimsuljic I think you should try running this on your windows command-line environment instead: `go run build.go build`. But I think this might require you to install GCC on your windows machine as outlined in the README file I mentioned earlier. Hope that helps! ---

@besimsuljic If my suggestion above doesn’t work, then you should run this command on your WSL environment: `env GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build build.go`. Hope that helps! ---
